St Thomas Mushroom

[Aurortpa]

Does anybody have experience with st thomas mushrooms? I don’t usually get shrooms but this may definitely change my tune!  I had never seen one of these before. There is little to no info on their reproductive rate, max size, or specific care?

I have no idea but following this thread in hopes someone has some experience. (Interested in getting on in the future.)

I’ve had several. Mine liked a lot of light and were huge compared to my other mushrooms.

TY for sharing! Oh man, how big does he get?  Is he ok next to other shrooms?

A few of mine were 3-4” across some days and they were small. 😅 some are bigger than others

I love st Thomas but have only seen 1 store carry them here.

 

Not much info on them out there.

 

If they are anything  like rics, some will like high light others not so much.

 

Mushrooms are odd that way.
